This meme represents procrastination which I have picked up on since the sophomore year of high school. Even though we have more free time now, I still do not like doing assignment ahead of near due date. It’s a really bad habit that I have to correct since I would normally not have time to do anything else and actually ending up spending more time on the assignment then I initially had planned. It’s also bad for my sleeping pattern. I would stay up finishing assignments instead of getting enough sleep then the next day I nap so I lose out on more time of doing homework. This ends up in a never ending cycle. Also, inadequate sleeping time makes me want to sleep in class which I do for Political Science and sometimes for Philosophy.
Procrastinating for papers also mean I procrastinate studying for exams. That results in the same sleeping problems but lowers my grade in exam as well. I also want to join clubs but I have to study during club hours instead since I don’t have enough time to study at home due to procrastinating.
I hope to get rid of the habit before the next semester. Starting my major would require me to spend more time studying outside of class instead of in class so I hope to spend those time when I’m supposed to be studying/learning doing nothing productive.
All in all, procrastinating is bad for me since I want high grades. Higher grades are not achieved by only listening in class. College gives me free time that I did not have in high school so I can study so I need to take advantage of that. The overall way I’m focusing on getting rid of this habit is not taking naps so I can sleep on time and not stay up late. I don’t see myself achieving this anytime soon but hopefully before I start courses on my career.
